8.6/10 Excellent! (1,011 reviews)

We stayed here for 5 nights from Oct.11 - Oct 15 and extended it through the 16th. We had an oveanview king room on the 7th floor. This was our 2nd year to stay here. The rooms are clean, the bathroons are generously sized, showers had great pressure. We didn't eat at the restaurants for any meals as we were visiting family and ate our meals with them. They had entertainment every night and the bartender makes a great margarita. We will definitely be staying again next year.
